Because your vehicle has a right front passenger air
bag, always move the seat as far back as it will go
before securing a forward-facing child restraint. (See “Seats”
in the Index.)
Put the restraint on the seat. Follow the instructions
for the child restraint.
Secure the child in the child restraint as the
instructions say.
Pick
up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder
portions of the vehicle’s safety belt through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions
will
show you how.
If the shoulder belt goes in front of the child’s face or
neck, put it behind the child restraint. 5. Buckle the belt. Make sure the release button is
positioned
so you would be able to unbuckle the
safety belt quickly if
you ever had to.

window
so the child can wear a lap-shoulder belt and
get the additional restraint a shoulder belt can provide.

A CAUTION:
Never do this.
Here
two children are wearing the same belt. The
belt can't properly spread the impact forces. In a
crash, the
two children can be crushed together
and seriously injured.
A belt must be used by
only one person at
a time.
@ What if a child is wearing a lap-shoulder belt,
but the child is
so small that the shoulder belt is
very close to the child's face or neck?
A: Move the child toward the center of the vehicle, but
be sure that the shoulder belt still
is on the child's
shoulder, so that in a crash the child's upper body
would have the restraint that belts provide.
If the
child is
so small that the shoulder belt is still very
close
to the child's face or neck, you might want to
place the child in the center seat position, the one
that has only a
lap belt.
